Just received this product yesterday, the first day it came out. I have only had one Fitbit before and it was a pretty basic one a few years ago. Lately I’ve been looking for a watch to track my swimming during the day as well as notifications and have tried some cheaper Amazon watches. However, after going through a few of them for half the price of this and having them either break, dysfunction, or not be accurate, I decided to spend extra and buy a watch that seems to be much better quality. The big question for me will be how it does swim tracking and if it continues to function properly like it says it should following swimming. I like that I could organize the apps and download the ones that I like and there are so many clock faces to choose from it took me a long time! So far there’s nothing that I don’t like. The battery life says it should be about four days where is the cheaper Amazon watches lasted a few weeks and I hardly had to think about charging. However, this watch does so much more that I can see why it needs charging more often.I love that connected to my Apple AirPods with no problem and to my Spotify account and Pandora account! I can switch the songs and change the volume with no problem! The small band fits my wrist perfectly but it also came with a larger band. I think it’s cool that the New York Times articles have a little pictures and overall I’m very excited to see how this watch functions!

In terms of the fitness – I love that it has on screen workouts word vibrates to go to the next step I also enrolled in premium so I could choose various programs such as intro to fitness and have a more personal approach to my fitness goals. I will update with how it lasts and works after I go swimming tomorrow, I usually swim for about an hour. And in general how the battery life is!So far so good!

UPDATE (LOVE IT!):After a rocky first 24 hours with the Versa 2, things turned around. I love it! It has been working correctly since a day after the initial set-up. Don’t know what caused all the issues or what fixed them. I did not change anything I set-up in the fitbit app or my android mobile device settings. Perhaps the problems were due to everyone trying to download/update their Fitbit apps and new Versa 2 after the release. So far any apps that allow push notification to my phone will also push to the Versa 2 if I enable them. I used the older fitbit connect app to transfer music from my Windows laptop to the Versa 2 — no issues, lots of storage on the device for my music. I connected cheap Bluetooth earbuds with no problem as well. I can see my appointment from Outlook in the calendar app. It is awesome. On occasion, if I walk too far away from my phone, the Bluetooth disconnects, and I have to switch my Bluetooth on/off on my phone to reconnect, but that is mostly because I am too impatient to give it time to reconnect on its own. Alexa is fantastic – can use it just like echo and it works with all my other Alexa stuff. I should knock off one star for the complex set-up which does involve workarounds (for example, having to use the old fitbit connect app) and may be too difficult for some; but I love it so that I am giving it five stars.ORIGINAL REVIEW (The best when it works.):I upgraded my Charge 2 with the Versa 2. My Charge 2 worked perfectly – no syncing issues always stayed connected, and all my push notifications worked. I figured I would be safe from all these issues others have been reporting with their Fitbit devices of late. It took a few aggravating hours to get it to sync, update, and stay connected. I had to search the internet and apply all these “fixes” to make it work. They are not really “fixes” but rather workarounds, but I was ok with that as long as they worked. After much frustration, I finally got the Versa 2 working….for a few hours. And I must say that those few hours were utter bliss. The Versa 2 was AWESOME until it wasn’t. Then the syncing and connections problems returned. I will give it a week or two to be consistent; otherwise, I will be returning it. Perhaps Fitbit is furiously working behind the scenes to fix these new issues and send out a real fix. I can only hope. I will post a revised review if the issues are fixed.

Sleek beautiful design. I had the Fitbit Versa for 2 years and preordered the Versa 2 the day I got an email about it coming out! I can talk to text a reply back to someone or still use the preset texts or emojis. My Versa 2 works with my Echo dot & smart plug (I have a lamp i control and can now tell my watch to turn it off when I’m already in bed!) I LOVE the new Versa 2 and I’m so happy to see this upgrade. Although it doesnt have the feature to talk back, I think itd be nice for Alexa’s responses for weather, updates etc.

So I have a iPhone 8 Plus and expected trouble after reading several reviews. Shockingly I’ve had none. It connected right away, it syncs no issues, tracks things about as well as can be expected, it just does what it’s supposed to do. Overall I love this thing, it’s everything my charge 2 was and more. Tracking my bike routes, calorie count, no waterproof issues.. I guess if I had to pick something wrong with it I’d say it’s lack of decent face options?** updateStill no issues. The unprotected screen has taken some hits with absolutely no damage, the plastic around the screen has a few dings if you look for them. Band has caused my wrist to get irritate so I’ve taken to removing the bands and giving them a thorough scrub with some dawn and a brush to get in the books and crannys. I wipe the watch itself down with a cleaning wipe too. This has relieved the irritation so I do it about once a week. The thing is still awesome. The watch face options are pretty good but none of them have a working weather thingy even if they say it does so that stinks a bit. Battery life is great if you don’t use the always on display, I get a week out of a charge with it off and about 3 maybe 4 days with it on.

So I received this Fitbit on 02/29/20 and waited to write this review to see how it works for me. And here’s what I’ve experienced..STEPS: the first 3 or 4 days the steps were off, like it counted more steps than what I actually walked. it was ridiculous. But then it seemed to get a lil more accurate as the days went on. I also tightened the band a lil bit so that it would be more secure. And I feel like now it DOES count more accurately. Now it does count steps if you just hit it or swing your arm, but if you don’t do that too much while you’re sitting or caring things, then it doesn’t “double” count your steps. I’m happy now with that.SLEEP: It doesn’t seem to track my sleep too well. Like it’s not completely off, but its still not on point like I would like it.BATTERY: the battery life is pretty good. I can go about 3-5 days without having to charge it. I personally don’t like having a low charge (like 34%) so I tend to charge it sooner than I probably need too. So it can probably go about a week without a charge.NOTIFICATIONS: my messages come thru immediately. I always get my messages as soon as they pop up on my phone. And in the app you can change what you want to come thru on the watch, like I kept my txt messages on to come thru, but not my phone calls, and I can change what I want to come thru at anytime.APP: the app is good. it’s not super great, but it does what you need it to do for your watch. there is a premium option, and it does ask you to join, but you can say no and just use the app like normal. the premium just has more stuff to take advantage of, but I don’t really care to use it (or pay for it). You can add or remove apps from your watch thru the app. you can even download new ones to have on it too. there are free ones, and ones you have to pay.CLOCK FACES: the watch faces are cute. there are LOTS of options. but I found out that there are a selected ones that are free and the rest you have to pay for. its just like the phone themes on androids. you have free ones and then ones to that you have to pay for. But they’re all cute. I found a free one that I can put my own picture on to make it personalized. I like that a lot.I personally think that some of the reviews are from folks that have HIGH expectations of the watch, cuz I mean its not the Apple watch, so it is limited, but it does what a simple person needs it to do. For others, I think that maybe they just received faulty ones or they misuse it thinking its the watch.I’ll try to remember to come back in about a month or so and review how it’s going. But so far, it’s going good and I don’t have many complaints.Hope this helps !

This is awesome. I love the accuracy of the sleep tracker, step counter, and heart rate monitor! As a former Charge 2 user, this thing is loaded with extra “bells and whistles”, like Alexa built-in (SUPER CONVENIENT), ability to control Spotify/Pandora, cuts out the “middle man” i.e, your phone, when it comes to tracking water in-take, female calendar, as you can log all this info right from your wrist.Set your location in the app and get weather updates in just a swipe, upload your own personal music, pick from HUNDREDS of customized clock faces (even a Bitmoji one if you’re a Snapchatter).Reply to calls and texts right from the device. Use/customize your own 5 responses with or without emojis, or, speak directly into your Versa 2 and watch your speech-to-text appear before your eyes on the screen, with the ability to edit before you send.All in all, for having this for only 2 days, I’m excited to put it to the test as far as exercising, personal tracking, and seeing how far battery life goes after 5+ days.If you’re on the fence, just climb on over and buy this device! Fun, easy to use, and tons of replaceable bands to choose from to customize your everyday look!

I’ve had various Fitbit products over the years, and have really liked them, and Fitbit customer service has been great to me. This is an upgrade from my Charge 2. The other watch I considered was the Apple 4 (or now 5), but it’s twice the price at $399. The Apple had a EKG (really ECG) that I liked, but was not sure it would be too helpful for me. And the Fitbit has sleep tracking a feature that the Apple Watch does not come with. And the battery life on the Fitbit Versa 2 is a lot better with 4-5 days vs. Apple’s less than one day (18 hours).The screen is beautiful, a HUGE upgrade. Lots of clock choices. There is an always on screen, but I chose to keep it off for now, it uses more power, and it’s a very basic black and white, simple screen. And not sure I always want the screen on, there are times like in a theater or in a dark room where it would be distracting. A big plus is you can turn auto screen off at night, so it does not come one when you move in your sleep. A very useful feature, that should save some battery life too.I needed to call customer service as I was having problems getting it added on my Fitbit app. Since the watch is brand new (released September 15), it needs the latest Fitbit app for it to work. After that was fixed, there was a bluetooth issue, but after turning it off and on, we were in business.A wonderful upgrade for me.EDIT: I want to add, the watch bands are so much better than previous one’s I’ve used on Fitbit watches. I’m guessing they are no different than those on the previous Versa, but they are so much easier to use than those on the Charge 2. (and I think they will last longer, I had problems with my Charge 2 bands breaking.)

Got my Fitbit Versa 2 this morning. I’ve been playing around with it all morning. Loving all the new features! Having Alexa on my wrist is great!

Very happy with this smart watch/fitness tracker. If you are looking for a fitness tracker that has incredible battery life, a fantastic app, and sleep tracking there is no better product on the market. I think it is nice that it also includes some of the essential smart watch features like messages on your wrist and connectivity to control Spotify. The Alexa integration is also a nice bonus feature. However, if you are more interested in a smart watch features and care less about fitness tracking then maybe the Apple Watch is a better choice for you. I actually have an Apple Watch and prefer to wear the Fitbit because I think Fitbit really nailed the features that are important to me – fitness, battery life, sleep tracking, messages on wrist. Everything else I can handle on my phone but it is nice that the features I care about are done so well on this watch. Also, it is really comfortable to wear. I never take it off. One other feature that I think is important is the always on heart rate monitor. The Apple Watch only measures your heart rate every 10 min when you are not in a workout. I like having the always on tracking during the day so I can quick glance at what my heart rate is doing. As far as I know, you can not do this with the Apple Watch; you would need to open up the heart rate app on the watch to get a read. Just another reason why I think this Fitbit is better for my lifestyle. It does the stuff I care about well rather than doing everything mediocre like the Apple Watch. Just my opinion…
